Advanced Rotorcraft Technology, (ART), Mountain View, CA, developed FLIGHTLAB, a design/analysis tool and pilot simulation system for rotary wing aircraft, based on a research project conducted by ART, the Army Aerodynamics Directorate and Ames Research Center on using parallel processing in simulation models. The experiments showed that a new software architecture could provide real time simulations of high performance rotorcraft that closely matched actual flight at substantially lower cost than the mainframe computers previously needed for the simulations.
